Trivia Question

Guest Blogger for this evening...Rhonda is at work for a few hours so this is the fun I was treated to.

How many "Weapons of Choice" do you see in this Picture?




Think you know the Answer? One....Two....Three????? Think you've got it?

What is your answer? Did you say Two?

Well, if you answered "Three and a half"....you are right!!!

ANSWER KEY:

Weapon #1 - Plastic Toy Torpedo, used in swimming pools or bathtubs in this case

Weapon #1 1/2 - Ammon's Personal "missle"...this is gently hidden behind his belly for the sake of the children - great Camera Phone angle by me if I don't say so myself.

Weapon #2 1/2 - 3 1/2 - Ammon's "Homemade Torpedos"...one looks like a dud but one looks like it could sink the Titanic.

Gotta love parenting!!!

(p.s. The tub has officially been bleached now, it will re-open in the morning)

Raegan's First Soccer Game

Raegan was so excited to start soccer that she had her uniform laid out and ready for a full 24 hours before her game. She had been asking for over a year to play, so now that she has the chance she was all ready to make it the best.

At first she just kicked around, but after her first collide with a team mate that brought tears and pain, she was determined to make it a full game of determination.

I was so proud of her getting herself up front and getting her chance to make contact with the ball! That is why I took so many pictures, because she broke from the crowd that just follows the flow of the ball and went around to intercept. I hope this isn't a one game strategy...she was phenomenal! One play she made the actual goal, another she assisted. Here is her money shot! (She's leading the pack)

GOOOOOOAL!!!

It was a fun morning on the fields!

Gooooo Rockets!!!

Tired Boy

A few days ago, Ammon had a long day. He was up early and had a short nap...which lead to this result at dinner time...my kids are looney but I love them.

Toilet Paper, Oh Toilet Paper...

Not much to say on this post...the pictures say it all.

Labor Day Weekend

This entire weekend was a "forget the camera" kind of weekend. These pictures are courtesy of Trent's phone (turned out nicely for a phone). Sunday Troy and Kristin blessed baby Brynley so we were able to bask in the early church time. So nice. A very nice blessing and Sabbath Day. Congrats to their family. But of course I forgot my camera...as if I don't have enough to bring to church...Ha! For dinner we had all the family over. I love having people over and enjoying their company. Lots of great food and conversation.

For Labor Day, Gma W was still in town so we took advantage of it and planned a park day with the rest of the family. Besides the park restrictions of water guns and water balloons we were still able to play a friendly game of kick ball, toss a football and baseball around and play on the castle park jungle gym.

Rian was the "pitcher", with Gma and Missy and Tarin in the outfield.

Gma, sorry couldn't pass this one up...using her karate kid skills..."wax on, wax off"...Nick, Jarom, and Ammon in the background.

Rounding 3rd base.

Tarin mid-kick using the power of her ponytail...

80 water balloons fully loaded and ready to cause some damage.... we had to go over to the church grounds to enjoy these...

Rae being a big helper...

Finally the kids say their farewell to Gma W for her awesome visit. (She is also holding baby Bryn for those who might be thinking I snuck another child into our family...) Thank you Gma, we love you so much!
